I’m probably a third of the way through my life. There’s so many things that I’ve witnessed but far too many more that I’ve yet to see. I was talking about things to do before you die, as you do, with The King this week. Life is so precious and you only have one of them, so I’m keen to make better use of my time.
We’ve been living with more intention these days. Planning ahead, making goals, spending less time coasting and more time trying to achieve things, whether they be big or small. One of my goals was to write a massive life bucket list. This list then turned into this; a list of things to do before you die. Some of these I’ve already done, loads of them I still need to accomplish so I can tick them off. But I’m giving myself the next 60 years to finish, so no big rush.
Do you have a list of things you want to do before you leave this earth? What kind of things are on it? Are there major life goals you’ve already ticked off?
